I went into Parker’s to return just my boyfriend’s suit jacket (not the pants, since those were hemmed). The lady who helped me said it was a set and couldn’t be returned, so I left. Later, my boyfriend mentioned he was confused because the jacket and pants had been pulled from different racks, which made it unclear why the jacket couldn’t be returned.
When I called back to clarify, the man who answered the phone immediately cut me off, yelled at me, and wouldn’t even let me finish my sentence. He told me I was “trying to run his store,” said I “knew nothing,” and continued to yell and degrade me rather than listen.
You never know what someone is going through, and to treat another human being this way is extremely vile and unprofessional. This is not how you run a small business, and I sincerely hope they reflect, find Jesus, and treat future customers with more respect and...
Read moreI went into Parker’s to get sized for a suit. The woman who fitted me assured me it would work, so I purchased it. When I got home and tried everything on together with a shirt and tie, the jacket was huge on me and clearly not the right fit.
Since the pants were hemmed, we only tried to return the jacket, which had never been worn. My girlfriend went in to return just the jacket and was told it couldn’t be returned because it was part of a set, even though the pieces had been pulled from different racks.

This is no way to treat customers. Professionalism, respect, and kindness were completely missing from this experience, and it’s not how you run a...
Read moreIn Blue Ridge for a wedding and found myself in sudden need of a few items of clothing and—by good fortune—stumbled upon Parker’s Clothing and Scrubs. What an absolute gem of a store!
From the moment I stepped through the door, I was greeted with genuine Southern warmth and hospitality that one simply can’t fabricate. The staff, each one gracious and attentive, went out of their way to help an out-of-towner in a bit of a pinch. Their knowledge of both fit and fabric was impressive, and their kindness made what could have been a stressful errand a real pleasure.
The selection is tasteful, the quality excellent, and the service beyond reproach. Parker’s represents the very best of small-town Georgia charm paired with professionalism you’d expect in a fine boutique.
Do yourself a favor and stop by Parker’s. You’ll leave looking sharp and feeling...
